Cotton ball feeling...

Posted , 7 users are following.

Hello ladies just wondering if any of you ever have the feeling that a cotton ball is in your throat.?? Lol

I know that sounds weird. I have a slight allergy problem but not severe. 

It seems when idrink something to try to soothe it, it still feels really dry. 

Any suggestions??

    Hi Donna

    Doesn't sound weird at all, I have it right now! I'm not sure if it's related, I've looked online and I think there could be lots of reasons like allergies, anxiety and even tension in the neck. I've been treating everything so I drink plenty, suck a sweet, do relaxation and some neck exercises to try to aleviate tension. It does go away after a while, I think it works best when I try to ignore it otherwise it invokes panic! Hope you find a way to manage yours smile xx

    Hi

    I've been having throat problem for 4 days now, mine feels rough,dry and tickely and at night it's worse and I'm coughing all night. Like you since peri have suffered allergy issues therefore not sure if it's the heat in my bedroom and no air or its allergy based cause of the heatwave we are having atm but I'm starting to worry it's something serious the longer it's lasting 😕
